In Lviv, UAH 17.8 million has been allocated in financial assistance to residents whose homes were damaged during Russian attacks on 30 July and 13 October 2026. The relevant decisions were adopted by the executive committee of Lviv City Council and concern compensation for the cost of restoring damaged windows and doors.
Two further resolutions of the executive committee provide for compensation totalling UAH 697,600. This concerns reimbursement for the installation of new window and door units in homes damaged by blast waves and debris during the shelling.
According to the municipal Social Protection Department, following the massive attack on 30 July 2026, the total amount of assistance to residents exceeds UAH 17.3 million. The City Council received 593 applications regarding damaged housing. After the shelling on 13 October 2026, the amount of approved assistance exceeds UAH 502,000, with 8 applications from residents recorded.
By way of reminder, in summer 2025 Lviv approved an updated procedure for providing financial assistance to people whose homes were damaged as a result of missile strikes or drone attacks. The document provides support to owners of houses and flats damaged by blast waves, debris or flooding after shelling. Assistance may be provided either as partial reimbursement for specific elements (for example, windows or doors), or for carrying out repairs in flats and to the roofs of private houses.
To receive compensation, residents must submit an application no later than 6 months after the shelling. The applications are reviewed by the relevant departments of the City Council, after which decisions on the allocation of funds are taken.
In addition, at the end of July 2026, Lviv increased the maximum amounts of such assistance. It is now possible to receive up to UAH 20,000 for restoring damaged entrance doors and up to UAH 15,000 for each destroyed window, double-glazed unit, block or structure. Previously, the maximum reimbursement amounted to UAH 8,000 per door and UAH 12,000 per window.
